On a final note!!! I just watched the episode titled Inhumanitas which reminds me of a couple more reasons why I love this show. Lucas is evil but I swear he has this weird sense of justice that I just love. People sit on the fence, right on top of it wanting to do the right thing but feeling the lure of the wrong then, then Buck gives them a push and as soon as they fall not he evil side, they pay dearly and whoever they were going to screw gets rewarded.

Just tried to check it out (in vain, because DirecTV doesn't carry it). Was a fun little show. I saw the entire run first time through, have the DVD set on my To Buy List.

God save me from TruBlood (sorry fans). I did see the first episode of American Gothic and it was shocking. Just think about the premise in its entirety though, the central anti-character Buck is a supernatural, serial-killing, master manipulator, raping uh Sherriff who's pitted against his eight year old son conceived after he raped the boy's mother (who later commits suicide)... And his eight year old son spends a great deal of time speaking with his dead sister Merlyn who watched the aforementioned rape and went supernaturally batty. PLUS our devil Buck gets to hang out in the confession booth at church with the priest giving him the scoop on all the locals. And I think it was on CBS of all stations.

He has a gift for working the suspenseful, spooky side of things. Do you recall the shocking murder in the first ep of "American Gothic"? You *never* see anything like that on American television! There were some genuinely creepy moments in "Invasion" as well. I really liked that show... It seems to be me that every couple of years there's a discussion about why Joss Whedon's work doesn't make it on network TV--aside from Buffy and Angel, that is. There's all the discussions about how Fox won't stay with a good show for too long (such as the great, lamented "Tru Calling", a show I loved). I wonder if Whendon would do better on FX, USA, or even HBO/Showtime? Maybe good people like him and Cassidy should try that ----- Original Message ----- From: "Aubrey Leatherwood" <aubrey.leatherw...@hotmail.com> To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 7, 2010 1:38:35 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: RE: [scifinoir2] American Gothic Marathon Oh wow, I forgot all about Shaun Cassidy.

Gary Cole was great and menacing, and Lucas Black was quite a find. I agree with you he hasn't quite reached the potential he showed in "American Gothic" and "Sling Blade". I was really excited to see where he'd go. He has such an intense personality. But alas, aside from "Friday Night Lights", I can't remember him with major roles in any other work. He works all the time--"Legion", "Jarhead", "Cold Mountain"--just not as visibly as I'd hoped. And don't forget "American Gothic" is the brainchild of former Hardy Boys teen heart throb Saun Cassidy. Cassidy was also behind the short-lived series "Invasion" (a modern take on the "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" theme), and, he was one of the producer/writers for the short-lived series "Roar", which starred Heath Ledger as a Celtic warrior. When Cassidy's penchant for edge, adult fare started manifesting itself, quite a few suits and fews were surprised. I think he's one of the best talents in the scifi/fantasy genre. Unfortunately, he likes to write densely layered plots that take time to develop, and don't really on a lot of quick killing and action, so networks rarely give his stuff more than one year. He ought to try his hand at more movies, or maybe people like him and Joss Whedon need to form an outfit to get their stuff produced on networks that might actually support them for a while. Fox and ABC don't have the staying power. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Aubrey Leatherwood" <aubrey.leatherw...@hotmail.com> To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 7, 2010 1:06:23 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [scifinoir2] American Gothic Marathon Hey Guys, American Gothic is on Chiller for the next few hours. I was very much into this series (but never into Twin Peaks oddly enough) and somewhat amazed that it made it past a pitch session onto TV even if it was cancelled after one season. Produced by our buddy Sam Raimi it featured a few actors (Gary Cole, Jake Weber, Sarah Paulson) who are pretty successful these days. Lucas Black hasn't quite lived up to his potential, but you had to love him as a kid with that heavy Southern accent. Did anyone else watch it?
